    Angle Offset Alignment - Often Flips Upon Accepting Placement

    A couple issues with the method you mentioned... 1) When I select the pin connection, I only see Axis Alignment and Translation, not Rotation Axis. 2) When I choose the mating surfaces between the pin and the sleeve for the translation constraint, the door flips over, so it is now upside down...

    Angle Offset Alignment - Often Flips Upon Accepting Placement

    When I am using the angle offset constraint for aligning a hinge sleeve to a hinge pin the angle often flips on me upon hitting the checkmark for component placement. A little background... I have created a hinge that consists of a sleeve and a pin. The pin gets welded to another plate and the...
